Josh Simmons
I’m 22, and am from Grenada Mississippi. I am a sophomore music major at Northwest Mississippi Community College in Senatobia Mississippi and am involved in just about everything that our little music department has to offer except the band(and I help them set stuff up). I have a twin and am the oldest of three brothers, we have two dogs and a cat. I go to a small church in Big Creek Mississippi and am very active there as well as with the Baptist Student Union on my campus. I’ve been on three mission trips so far in my life; Mexico, China, and the Dominican Republic. I love working with God’s people and seeing what he does in their lives as well as mine. I’m excited about this summer and can’t wait to see what God has up his sleeves.

Kelley Anne Jones
I am so excited to be serving at Eagles’ Wing Youth Ranch this summer. God has been moving in my life and revealing Himself to me in ways I never dreamed He would. I am originally from Ripley, TN. I will be graduating from Mississippi University for Women in May 2011 with plans of attending New Orleans Baptist Seminary in the fall. I love getting up early, coffee, singing ridiculous songs, laughing, smiling, and having a good time. I am so excited to see what God is going to do this summer in the lives of the people we minister to, the staff, and myself. God has placed me at the ranch this summer for a reason, and I cannot wait to find out that reason.

Coddy MacNeill
I am from a small town just outside of Birmingham, Alabama. I am a junior at Chelsea High School were I am a member of the school’s marching band. I can play about six instruments, though I don’t think I am very good at any of them. Being from the South, I love the outdoors! Camping and hiking are right up my alley. Also I love sports, my friends and I always get together to play pick up games like basketball and frisbee. More important though than my love of music, nature, and sports however is my love for God and His love for me, and above all I want to see His glory made known among ALL nations! I am pumped for camp this summer and I can’t wait to see what God has in store for everyone involved!

I am sixteen, and a senior in highschool. I currently live in Caribou, Maine with my parents and two bothers on a small hobby farm, where we raise things from pigs to turnips. I enjoy listening to the rain, running, biking, and sharing the love God to others in tangible ways. I have a heart for missions, and am excited to see what God has in store for us this summer!
I am from a small town in Texas called Bovina. I love sports of all kinds. My favorite is basketball. I play the drums in my high school band. I also play the guitar and piano a little. I was a camper at Eagles’ Wings when I was younger. I kept returning and felt the Lord calling me to volunteer as staff. This is my second year as a staffer. Eagles Wings has done so much for me and has helped me grow my walk with the Lord and also in my life. I am very excited to be back and see all the campers and meet the new staffers!

Amanda Jett
I am a 20 year old senior at the University of South Carolina Upstate. I am a waitress which forces me to break out of my shell and reach out to strangers with a loving smile. At my church, I help with the youth and children whether it be through bible studies, tutoring, or simply playing games. I am far from perfect and in no place to judge anybody else; but even through all of my wrongs and all of my sin, God still wants me- for that I am eternally grateful! Last summer, I served as a summer missionary at Gulf Shores and am bursting-out-of-my-skin-excited to be serving at Eagles Wings Youth Ranch this summer! Pray for us!
